Kuba Sojka

Countdown

The countdown has begun! Polish mastermind Kuba Sojka digs into his wide repertoire of influences to bring us this latest release on Cosmic Club. Each of the 4 tracks is distinctly unique, standing out from one another through Kuba’s varied uses of synths and percussion. “Countdown” is reminiscent of those early Detroit movements in techno and electronica, instantly reminding me of the likes of Dopplereffekt, which is certainly no bad thing. The vibe of “Getaway” is exactly as the name would suggest; pumping arpeggiated synths accompanied by piercing snares that evoke images of a neon-drenched, italo-fueled 80’s action film. Try and not feel energised to this, we dare you. On the flip, “Ego” scratches the itch for something deep; filtered sounds galore with a bit of that garagey swing. Rounding off, “Everything Will Be Ok” drops the tempo and commences the much-needed cleansing after the pure energy that has come on the track before; this is my new 5am watch-the-sun-rise tune. Kuba knows and delivers with this essential record! As usual : Vinyl only.
